Normally I don't write reviews. However, I just loved this book. I finished this book in three days. This book is even better than the other 3 books. Generally, the last but one book is average because it is justing everything up for the last book.
Many characters were introduced in this book.
Good character development.
Can't wait for fall 2017 for the last book to come out.
I would recommend this series to any fantasy lover.

I cannot wait until Fall 2017 when the final book comes out! I loved the whole story and definitely the idea of the echolands. I found the plot very engaging and the characters (as always) were awesome and hilarious! It was definitely an awesome book!

When I started this book, I wasn't very enthusiastic when I found out that the kingdom was based on dabbling with spirits, afterlife, and a purgatory realm. I thought it would end up having an off flavor of spookiness, but I have to say that even though the afterlife is not my cup of tea, I stand very proudly behind the creativity of Brandon Mull. His imagination and storytelling have never disappointed me, and he spins such satisfying tales.
After spending four books with the characters, I would give Brandon Mull a standing ovation for who he has written Cole to be. Cole is an exemplary role model for the targeted audience in the middle years. He grapples with the consequences of his decisions and right and wrong, and he is a champion for not just bravery, but morality. I would love for my kids to read this and be inspired by Cole. His character is never questionable. And while completely laudable, I never get the feeling that he is not relatable for readers.
I'm only sorely disappointed that I now have to wait a year for the final installment to be released!
